In a little less than a decade, Sanjay Garg’s label Raw Mango has not only made its way to leading retailers across the country but has also received the seal of approval from the likes of Jaya Bachchan, Nita Ambani and Sonia Gandhi. Now, to the delight of Mumbai’s fashion-conscious elite, the designer’s vibrant, handwoven creations have found a new home in one of the city’s most iconic buildings.

Spread across two floors, the expansive 2,500sqft space has been conceived by Garg in collaboration with architect and interior designer Ashiesh Shah and designer Isla Marie van Damme. Red brick walls, terracotta horses, cane chairs and mul-lined almirahs—which draw from the work of celebrated architects including the likes of Geoffrey Bawa and Charles Correa—come together to create a minimal-yet-statement making space, much-like the designer’s aesthetic. “When we speak about minimalism in India, it seems like a borrowed idea. But when we speak of it as a necessity, we realise we have had it all along,” says Garg. Raw Mango’s latest collection, Monkey Business, which features handloom saris, lehengas, jackets and dresses, will be available at the store.
